10 Blogs That Are Fun To Read
27b/6
Everything on here is fictitious. Everything. Including that "man tries to pay bill with spider drawing" thing that went viral a few months back. It's original though (very), and long (words-wise, I mean), and fun (tons).

Boing Boing
A directory of wonderful things that's wonderfully fun to read. Notice I said "read" not look at. BB has some of the few fun, yet long-form posts anywhere online.

Craigslisting
I know I just said pranks should never be against people, and this is one guys journal of messing with people on Craigslist. But my juvenile side forces me to come back time and again.

Hotdogsladies
Twitter is for dorks like me to dork out. Hotdogsladies is for Merlin Man to post often dark but funny, observations. How fun is that?
Recent Posts from this Blog
- hotdogsladies: @sebastiandadal "IT'S NOT FUNNY!"
- hotdogsladies: .@fraserspeirs On LJ I had 2-person "groups" I used daily. Social media's a joke til we can decouple trust from acquaintance & "publishing"
- hotdogsladies: Fine. I admit it. Radiohead is impervious to my hipster backlash. I'm supergay for Radiohead, and I don't care who knows. I feel so free!
Neatorama
The original "neat stuff" blog. Looking at neat stuff is fun any way you cut it, and now that Neat is Web 2.0 enabled (user-generated) there's even more neat stuff to have fun looking at.

New Math
Fun new equations every day, for your perusing pleasure.
Swissmiss
Sure, at its heart it's a design blog, but Tina posts so many things that are just plain joyous, how could it not be fun to look at? SwissMiss has more smiles per inch than you would believe.

Urban Prankster
Often pranks are against people. They're divisive in that way. They make fun of instead of having fun. Urban Prankster and its pranks are the exception.

Zefrank.com
99% of the blogs on earth are stealing content from the other 99% of blogs on Earth. Ze Frank actually makes stuff. Fun stuff. Fun stuff that does stuff. Get lost in it.
Zoomdoggle
Incredibly, though there's always been fun stuff online, there wasn't actually a blog ABOUT fun before my very own Zoomdoggle. It's a blog about fun, that's fun to read, and should feel like your passport to fun (fun stuff to do, buy, think about, or play with). It's also the home of such original fun ideas as, well, the fun idea machine, the fun idea text, and stranger love letters project - the list is endless. The best bit of all? It's served hot and fresh 8 times per day, once for every hour you're trapped at work. When was the last time you made a play date?
